BROOKDALE — A man lying on the roadway was fatally struck by a truck Tuesday in this Santa Cruz Mountains community.

The collision occurred around 2:30 p.m., California Highway Patrol officer Sam Courtney said. A 911 call reported that, before he was struck, the victim had been seen lying near the intersection of Highway 9 and Larkspur Street, a block south of the Brookdale Lodge.

He was struck by a truck pulling a trailer. The driver remained on the scene and cooperated with authorities.

Courtney declined to comment Tuesday on whether charges would be recommended, saying only, “No arrests have been made today.”

Larkspur Street reopened around 5:15 p.m.

The Santa Cruz County coroner has not released the identity of the man killed. Relatives will be notified before he is named publicly, Courtney said.
